Fat is an equally sustainable source of energy

Got a study on that? I find it hard to believe that fats are good for energy.

Fats are fine for energy but don't do as well for high intensity of glycolotic efforts like Olympic lifting, powerlifting, heck even lower intensity lifting in general is partially glycolotic.

Fasted cardio doesn't provide any real benefits unless you're already very lean and looking to get leaner. If you're at 17% BF you don't need fasted cardio.

Ideally u would want at least 4-6 hours between them. But if that's what u can do than do it.

Just a few. Anything ketogenic in nature is a carbless diet. The body does not NEED carbohydrates.
